Good news for new ipod buyer... this ipod touch is IPod3,1

Not the 2,2 as many claims...

Proof... The file name for the firmware is iPod3,1_3.1.1_7C145_Restore.ipsw

With the fact that jobs specified that the ipod presented at the media event was the lineup for the holidays...

I thinks more and more that these rumors are all just desinformation... No camera was ever planned for the ipod touch...

We all know it has new hardware, what are you trying to get at?

I think he's trying to say that this isn't 2,2. Like, it's not just a midway or hold-over model, but the 3rd generation as it's supposed to be.

Ah, I see. Well, apple is the one that decides what they're named, and its not like it'd be hard for them to change it.

Exactly... so people should stop with rumors of october/november release...
Like what gizmodo did today !

I means... rumors amplified the deception... and lead to manifacturer to create useless case without any evidence !

I know... but if it was the opposite (firmware called Ipod2,2) .... end of the world...

lol

Son, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret here. Now listen real close.

Here on this site, EVERYTHING is the end of the world. The new touch could have had an IMAX camera and people would bitch that it doesn't look different, or that it doesn't wipe your ass for you.

So what if this is the 3rd gen?

It doesn't exactly mean Apple won't release the touch with a camera.

 

[DrawnToLife]

Yeah. But that could take a whole year for that to happen.
If this is really the 3rd Generation Touch, then the 3.5 or 4th Generation could be 6-12 months away.

 

[puffnstuff]

well that is a bundle of suck.

Guess I have to wait until next year then. I will be getting a cheapo 16GB 2g in the meantime

 

[TSX]

Does the 3rd gen 8GB count as 3,1, since it doesn't have new hardware?

 

[Miko]

What if they make an iPod Touch 3,2 in a few months with camera?

What if they make an iPod Touch 3,2 in a few months with camera?

In that case, I imagine, there will be an iPod Touch 3,2 with a camera.

Better start looking at the beta releases...

We just need somebody with a "new" 3rd Gen 8GB to look (but my guess is that it'll still be 2,2). Anyone have an extra $199 + tax to burn so we can find out?

Me, hopefully i get it soon.

There's a lot of evidence that supports that this is the 3G, and others that support it isn't. I'm not really sure what to believe.

If there is a lesson to learn from what happen at each keynote / media event... believe facts ... not rumors... you will be happier this way !
